Suvari sported a daring short cut for a movie role. After completing the film, the actress was rumored to have taken Flintstones vitamins three times a day to strengthen her locks. Mena's take on the rumor? "I laughed when I read that," she told InStyle. "For a few years now, I've worked with a naturopath in L.A., and she suggested I take Biosil, a vitamin that promotes nail and hair growth."
